M.A.

Anyone promoting Harry Potter in this day and age is making a choice. You can't plead ignorance anymore.

This whole thread gave me a panic attack as a lawyer.

I particularly love The Pitt. I watch the ASL version. :)

Pleasantly surprised by Monarch. Starfleet is enjoyable. ABSOLUTELY love Holly, and Tig.

TV night!

LFG.

I have a crush on each and every one of these women.

Yeah, gonna take a pass on this simply because of him.

Cosigned.

I have a large, exuberant cat absolutely going Godzilla over the bedroom while I try (unsuccessfully) to get a little more sleep.

He isnt wearing his shark costume, so he's just 100% out of control.

THIS.

I wish my clients were given even the tiniest amount of this kind of grace and compassion.

In light of the news that AI is involved in -if not fully controllling- decisions about the locations if missle strikes, I think that "On Killing" is essential reading.

It discusses, very thoroughly, the way in which dehumanization and "distance" from the "enemy" is required as part of war/killing.

I adjusted my glasses trying to fix this...

Low dex, but high AC.

I think about that person, too.💔

When things are this bad, it is easy to let emotions get the better of us. I understand, I really do.

But the feds don't. The judges don't.

I hope people post smart.

I dont want people to say stuff online that makes them meet someone like me.

If someone is sitting in my office, things have not gone well. I dont want that for anyone.

Today is a good day to remember this.

This is not the "it happened!" news I was hoping to wake up to.

I dont think even jury nullification will save him from the Excessive Cuteness misdemeanor.

CUTENESS.
Scrivner's error. Motion to dismiss indictment is denied.

Sharkie, a gray and white cat with vivid yellow/orange eyes, is standing among a shredded box of facial tissues. He looks very cute, but absolutely remorseless. This is evidence of count two in the above-styled indictment.

House v. Sharkie, Indictment 26-CR-001
Ct1: Criminal Damage to Toilet Paper Roll
Ct2: Criminal Damage to Tissue Box
Ct3: Terrorizing (DV) of Momo
Ct4: Excessive Cutness (misdemeanor)

True! Anyone that was a groundskeeper at Three Rivers is going to have the most Pittsburgh accent EVER.

They should get one local for a guest spot. Just some guy to talk about crick or a jagger bush or something.

No one on that show has a Pittsburgh accent, and I'm ok with that! You're absolutely correct.

Oh, this is so lovely! Congratulations, again! :)

Love you both!

Fuck. Now I really, really want to make this.

If I were on the Pottery Throwdown and give the flower challenge for my main make, I'd do all carnivorous plants.

LIttle mini pitcher plants, Venus fly traps, bladderworts, sundews. Calla lilies for the full goth experience. The vase would be a skull.

His name is Boo! After Boo Radley. Although, being a spooky kitty, it just is a good name for him in general.

They might not be in orb mode, but matlybe this is close enough?

This is Mr. Sharkie, the newest member of the cadre. He's a gray and white cat, wearing a shark costume. He's got a gray triangle of fur above his nose and between his eyes. There's another spot of gray fur on his chin, like an off-center goatee. He's standing in front of a bookcase. He's looking curiously at the camera. In front of him is a crinkly cat tunnel that all the cats pretty much ignore.

This is Momo, the middle child. She is a big supporter of LGBT+ rights. She's a gray tabby cat with big, sweet green eyes. She's sitting on a table, which she knows is not allowed. She looks very adorable and it is clear she knows it. Behind her is a pride nutcracker. Further behind her, the rest of the apartment is visible- bedroom, TV, patio doors.

This is the eldest of the Brigade. He's a void kitty, which vivid yellow eyes. He's calm, for once, and is looking at the camera. His ears are up and pointed forward. He's sitting on the arm of the couch. Behind him, and out of focus, are a christmas tree and a cat tree.

This is the Butthead Brigade!
They are perfect and pure.

I am really tempted to get The Goonies Lego set.

It looks so so cool.

"A screenshot of a social media post from Merriam-Webster. The post text reads, 'The #WordOfTheDay is 'abdicate'' followed by a link. The attached graphic features a golden crown resting on a textured gray stone surface. Text overlaid on the graphic reads: 'Merriam-Webster WORD OF THE DAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2026', followed by the word 'abdicate' in large letters. Below the word is its part of speech and pronunciation, 'verb | AB-dih-kayt', and its definition: 'to give up the position of being king or queen'."

Incredible timing.

What the fuck?
